So many mamas say they want to be more present… More present with their kids. More present in their life. More present in the moments they know they’ll miss someday.

And yet being present feels nearly impossible.

If you’re an overwhelmed mama who feels scattered, mentally exhausted, stuck in overthinking, or constantly preparing for “what’s next,” this episode is for you.

In today’s Prioritize With Purpose episode, we’re unpacking why being present feels so hard in mom life and why the advice to just "enjoy it” often leaves mamas feeling more frustrated, guilty, and disconnected instead of calm and fulfilled.

Here’s the truth most moms don’t realize (and almost no one says out loud): Being busy doesn’t automatically mean you’re engaged...and slowing down isn’t the real solution either.

Inside this episode, we explore:

• Why overwhelm, anxiety, and mental load make presence feel out of reach

• How living in the past or future quietly robs mamas of peace in the now

• The connection between overthinking, perfectionism, and feeling disconnected from your life

• Why multitasking increases stress instead of helping you manage mom life better

• How planning and clarity can actually help you feel more present (without doing less)

You’ll also hear powerful mindset shifts around:

• Letting go of guilt, self-doubt, and the pressure to “do it all”

• Why waiting for the perfect time keeps mamas stuck and unfulfilled

• How gratitude and intentional prioritization ground you in the present moment

• The role of boundaries, routines, and aligned planning in reducing mental noise

This episode isn’t about adding more to your plate or pretending motherhood is always enjoyable. It’s about understanding why presence feels impossible when your mind is overloaded, and what truly helps overwhelmed mamas feel calm, grounded, and emotionally balanced again.

If you’ve ever thought:

• Why am I unhappy even though I love my kids?

• Why does my life feel like a blur?

• Why can’t I stay focused on the moment I’m in?

You’re not broken. You’re not failing. And you’re definitely not alone.

This conversation will help you reconnect with your life, your values, and your moments—without pressure, perfection, or pretending.
